Home Office: Productive, or Waste of Time?? - 03/27/10 09:10 PM

 
Home Office:  Productive, or Waste of Time??
Do you work from home?? 
Is it beneficial, or a drag on your business?? 
Any tips if I transition to my home office??
 
 
FYI:  Current Situation - The number of agents at my office are growing monthly.  Quarters are tight, and privacy is extremely limited.  I share an office, and neither of us have any type of "client privacy".  It's impossible for us to schedule around one another, and leaving the office every time one of us has a client is starting to get ridiculous.  Not to mention, I can't … (19 comments)

VACATION: Are you still working?? - 03/24/10 10:23 AM








VACATION:  Are you still working??
Raise your hands...  How many of you still work while you are on vacation??  (I consider CrackBerry's, laptops, voicemail, texting, etc. working.)
I will be the first to admit that I can't seem to get away from work, even when I'm a thousand miles away.  THAT BEING SAID, I have started to set "work hours" while I'm on vacation.  What does that mean??  That I will only return calls, e-mails, texts, etc. during scheduled times that my spouse and I have set.  Why is my spouse involved in "MY" … (4 comments)

Talk about SAVINGS!!  I just found this online store http://www.academicsuperstore.com/ that offers HUGE discounts!!  Software, Computer Products, Electronics, Etc.
It saved me over $400 in one day!!  (Quickbooks Pro 2010 and Office Pro 2007)
Yes, I sound like a representative for this compnay, but no, I'm not.  I'm just a broke agent trying to cut any corners I can.  ;)  This is just an FYI in case you need any new programs or software.

TGIF!! - 03/05/10 12:38 PM

Alright Everyone,
Let's finish up with the work week and RELAX this weekend.  I know many of you have appointments, errands, kid activities, etc., but for just once, try and take at LEAST 30 minutes this weekend to be by yourself. 
SIT.  REFLECT.  RELAX!!
TIPS TO OPTIMIZE YOUR SUCCESS WITH RELAXTION:
1. Adopt a passive attitude. Approach relaxation with a "let it be" perspective. Don't try to make anything happen.
2. Relax in a quiet environment with few distractions. As you become more familiar with relaxation and practiced in various techniques, you will learn to relax anywhere. To begin, however, … (5 comments)
